His stay will be continued for sev? eral days. . G. W. CARLETON, Esq., a noted publisher of New York, is now in the city, and is a guest at the Mills House. A MisTAZt?-The New York Herald, of Friday last, under the head of "Southern Views," copies a long extract from an editorial article published in THE NEWS of the 24th, and credited it to tho Charleston Courier. We may be pardoned for suggesting to the Herald the propriety of giving proper credit when selections are made from their exchanges. AD JUBAL JNO. R. TUCKER.-This gentleman, vrho was well known to Charlestonians as an officer ia tho Confederate States Navy, and at one time ha i command of the gunboat Charleston, stationed at this port. At the close' of tho war he left the country and went to South America, where, 'be obtained the position of Commander in thc Peruvian Navy. Late advices t late that he has reigned tis commission in that, service, but nb mention is. mftde of his proposed movement. t?wr5 ,Tw? SEWING' MACHINE. Dc<n?B.f-We.oall attetf- j ? ?or? to the advertisement of D. B. .HASELTON UT this morning's ""paper. He is ! emphatically the Sewing Machine Doctor, and warrants ;a cure in all cases. A great many machines tlist were badly Shermanizid, and hundreds that have lain idle for the past five years, many of them broken and damaged, have passed through his course of txeat njenfc, and aro now at work with modern, improve njehts as good as new, thus saving thousands of dollars to the impoverished South.. Mr. H. is not a .'Recent' importation," but an old. resident, and In? made Sewing Machines a speciality for tho last ten years in this city. We would advise all who ?ftant tho latest and most r iliable nows on Sewing IL?"?Cbino matters, to givo him a calL ?MATOB'Sf ?OUBT, March 30.-Darnel Drayton, a ; black boy, who was brought up on a charge of j wounding another youth, while throwing bricks, was discharged, BB no prosecutor appeared;i "Fae* driv?rof a loaded dray,"who* was' lagging "behind while his industrious horse was plodding along, but had tho misfortune to run into a physician's buggy, much to its damage, was fined S?^OT^rkt w?l^ 7 -j -Prince Vandarhorst, a member of "Jcolored royal . family, who go t as crnmk a s ai lord, and was equal-: 3yasu^orderiy,"wasjfined Somp sailors belonging io the United States na vyr wh o were taken ap rather under the influence of ti>e alcoholics, were sent, on board: of their A WORD TO VHS WISE;-Ther** are few localities better, known than King street; but that prome? nade has so many pointsi . of? attraction that some may escape a transient visitor-but this is never the cas? with, No. 248 King street, the dry goods est?Uishment of Mr. Lours COHEN. WO paid a flying visit to Mr. COHEN 's establishment, some -weeks back, and gave our readers an account of "his, stock; since that timo ho has made extensivo additions, and it ia now - one of the:largest and Lest selected in tho' city-. Mri; COHEN is an expe4 Tienced merchant, and his stars shows the result of C7T?. and attention. His stock embraces the different description of goods, .styles, qualities, ?c.y and i? perfeot even in the minor details. The1 . ladies,' who cover f?j to visit Kir.g street, will find it impossible to pass by Mr, COHEN'S, as he offers irresistible .inducements to tampt thek ouriosity, sind the daughters of EVE, being shoppers by na* tmro, cannot resist tho temptation, but enter and QtrnTT.-Perhaps at no period since the close of the war t?as the city been more quiet, or enjoyed a greater fxeC""4om from disturbances of ?very de? scription, than* at present. The police courts have scarcely employment to keep them busy, and the few arrests made- aro for drunkenness, or some trifling breach, of the laws. The detectives are al? most ready to exclaim, "Othello's occupation is gone," for their charges have apparently made a total reform, and biv? renounced the error of their ways. Charleston, so tradition reports, al? ways was a godly place, and full of goodly people, and, from present appearances, tradition was not wrong. It is true that we are now passing through a crisis, and every other man has politics on the lorain, but there are few Southern cities whose population, including the lately freed class, show gea ter deference to the law, and are more quiet and orderly in their demeanor than in this city. It is a matter of congratulation that, notwith? standing the efforts of aome parties to foment dis? turbances and create an ill-feeling between the two .classes, the wheels of government, both civil and ?military, have moved smoothly along, and the entxente cordiale now existing bids fair long to con? tinue. - TOT FTBST OF APRIL.-The first of April enjoys a character of its own as far as it, and it alone, is ?onsecra.ad to practical joking. On this day it be? comes the business of a vost number of people, especially the juveniles, to practice innocent im? postures upon their -unsuspicious neighbors by way of making them what are called April Fools. For successful April fooling it is necessary to have considerable coolness, sud what is vulgarly known as face, in order to impose upon the victim success -fully. A large proportion of this pleasantry is ef? fected before and at breakfast, while few ha* > had occasion to remember the day of the year, and be? fore a single victimisation has warned people of their danger. This practice was originally brought from the motifter country, but has been considerably im proved since its introduction, and the day is not allowed to pass without an attempt to "sell" aH who come in daily contact with each other. Tba urchins on the Btreete and the - school boys are noted for their expertness in this style of fun, and spare none in their sport. The most common sell is to slyly pin a piece of paper or doth upon the dress, which at once attracts attention and pro? claims the wearer an April fool. Letters promising to givo valuable information to the bearer by ("ailing at a certain place are fre? quently used for this purpose, the party when ap jdied to sending the victim to another person, and 5t is probable not until some kind hearted individ? ual tells him of the trick that he finds that he has "been imposed upon. In Scotland this is called ""hunting the gowk," and is mentioned by one of the poets in the old couplet ''Thu lathe fir t dav of April, Hunt the gowk another mile." To chronicle tho numerous pleasant jests and catches that are current on this day would be im? possible, ss on inventive ge :ins has always some sew scheme on hand to surprise and entrap the unwary. The practice has been prevalent in all countries, from the earliest ages, with a singular coincidence of the day, but it is impossible to trace its origin. The homely jests used in this country of leather fritters, potato candles, &c, are well known, and the laugh is always the hear? tiest from tho individual who vainly tries to cut the one or light tho othor before he discovers that "the fools are not all dead." Aside from its character for practical joking, this is the first day of the most pleasant month in the year when Dame Nature seems to be in love with herself, and makes all things appear fresh, young> and beautiful. The March winds and fierce rains will now disappear, and in their place comes that mixture of sunshine and shower that has been a fruitful theme for poets in all ages, and is beau? tifully described in tho following lines : "Hail April, true Medea of tho year, That maketh all things young and fresh appear ; When we despair, thy seasonable showers Comfort the corn and cheer the drooping flo were; Sweet, I have penned thy praise, and here I bring it,] In confidence the birds themselves will sing it" OLDBONES.-Few persone are aware of the in : trinsic value, of old-bones, and have wondered at tho quantities that are daily being carried tlirough tho streets:and shipped to different point -S?rth, little orn? use has ever been made ot this mate? rial iu this section, and thc newspaper paragraphe alluding to its efficacy as a manuro have been gen? erally disregarded. At tho North, wheri every foot of land is highly cultivated, it is nocestary to em? ploy seme - moana to restore tho iopovcrishod earth to ita nounal condition, and the most im? proved fertilizers aro used for this purpose. Among those that have been tried none have been found equal to the ammoniated manures, as these contain a large proportion of lime, which is essen? tial to the health of the growing plants. These manures aro composed principally of pulverized bonee, and the raw material is obtained from ali sections of the country and prepared in the large factories in the Northern cities, from whence it is skipp ad oiten to tho very places that supplied the bones. In an agriculturid country like the South the importance of fertilizer? has been long known, and large expenditures are annually made by tue plant? ers to procure them. In our present impoverished condition, it is of vital interest to study economy in every particular, and when it is known that we possess the fertilizing material, the energy neces? sary to prepare it will be soon generated. The freight on the old horns and bones shipped from this part, together mia the return freight, profit and charges of the manufacturers and their agents, amount to a considerable sum, which is drained from people struggling against poverty. A factory to pulverise the bones and prepare the manure for market, could be easily established near this city, ?and would, in time, prov? a paying success. 1 The butcher pens would furnish a large propor? tion of the material used, and quantities could be obtained from the interior at low ratos, while tho ?ea island plantations in this vicinity-alono could support the establishment by their patronage. These are not the times for folding the hands; it is necessary to b& up and doing. Wo have Loo long been blind to our own interests, and the sooner we encourage the introduction of indus? trial and mechanical pursuits among us, the sooner we will emerge from our dependent State and be again a fi ce people. The South is an agricultural country, and tho establishment of these factories in her different cities would soon be attended with profit to the owners, and a vast amount of good to the planter, while the money that now -enriches strangers would be spent at home. THE TUBNVEEEIK, as will be seen by an adver? tisement in to-day's NEWS, is to have a gola time this afternoon and evening! The performances will commence at 2 P. M., when the young Turners will vault, leap, swing, run, wrestle, ic, and show to aa admiring audience that they have not been idle ' during the past twelve months. In the evening, ; afc 8 o'clock, all will, assemble, young and old, to wi tn oss a dramatic performance, after which the ' day's festivities will bo closed with dancing. That the Turners are a German society ia prob? ably all that the majority of our readers know on the subject. Soma few there may be who have ?ame indefinite idea that tho Turners are an ssso nation of gymnaste. Beyond this, we fed eure, io thing is knq TH to. the average non-Go rm ans. The word "turner" is generally derived from fer? nier (tournament), one of the best known institu? tions of chivalry. The founder of the modern i rurners--,cFather JAHN"-one of tho noblest of j nos, whom Germany honors for his patriotism j ind love of liberty, in contemplating the physical 1 strength and agility developed by those medieval , tournaments, thought that a restoration of this 1 nstitution would secure to the youth of Germany J i return of that strength of muscio which made ?he old Germans such formidable antagonists to ?heir ambitious neighbors. But he had his evo ? lot only upon mere physical development He vas mindful, also, of the old saying,--"ail mens iona tn corpore sano",-that a sound mind could inly be looked for in a sound body. The exercises ii' the Turners embrace every species of gyinnas? j ;io practice: swinging, climbing, fencing, running, < vreatling, etc., etc The Charleston Turnverein has been in opera- i ion over fifteen years, and is composed of three j lections : a gymnastic, a dramatic, and a musical singing) section. Formerly it hod special meet ngs for tho furtherance of literary and scientifio ' rulture among its members ; and they hod not un frequently very interesting discussions. The war ixercised a baneful influence upon its operations, ts it did upon every kindred association through- - ?ut the country ; but the society is hopeful that, nth the increase of German immigration, its auks will soon be filled to more than their pristine itrength. The play this evening, "Courtship in Hehgo- | and," promises to be of more than ordinary in- ? ere Bk The following is an outline of the plot: tater Pump, a rich fisherman, is desirous of mar ying his son "Hannes," who is almost au idiot, to i Tiara, the supposed daughter of a poor fisherman lamed Michael Steffens. She, however, is averse 0 such a union. Steffens owes money ?3 Pump, ' vho threatens him with tho law, if he does lot consent to the marriage. Jack Trolle, who, in tis youth, had run away from his parsntB in leligoland, and never been heard of sin oe, sud lenly turns np, and with him came a sailor, [rolle designs upending tho remainder of his days in the island, and learns of Steffens tho un >leasont posture of affairs between himsolf and Peter Pump. The young sailor, in the meantime, alls m love with the supposed daughter of Sief? ens, and communicates to his commander, Trolle, hat he would like to marry her. Trolle tells him that this could not be, without, however, giving .he reason. Next appear o an English nobleman (Lord Water sock), who has laid a wager that he could abduct .he prettiest girl from Heligoland without saying 1 word. [It is funny how those English lords, ffhen they get on the Continent, or even on an island in the G arman Ocean, make foolish bets and lever speak a word.] John, his lordship's groom, inters into negotiations with Peter Pump, who, sl? ured by the offered reward, agrees to assist. The abduction is to toke place at night. But Clara ac? cidentally that night slept at a neighbor's, and lack Trolle slept in her room at her father's house. They secure him, of course under the impression }f having the girl, and that very moment comes the young sailor. The story ends in the declara? tion of Jack Trolle, that the sailor is the son of Steffens, whom bis parents had long since thought drowned. Hence, Trolle's refusal to his union with Dlara, his supposed sister. But it soon turns out that she is not the daughter of Steffens, but a dis? tant relative, and that there is, therefore, no bar :o their union. The English lord commences a loxing match with the sailor, and is of course loosed. Debtors and Creditors. To the Editor of the Daily Netos : The newspapers in the several Districts of the State teem with statements of the unusual number af suits lately instituted for the collection of debts, md alarm is expressed at the consequences of the ipprehended pressure of debtors in their impover? ished condition. But it does not follow that such ? cruel result will ensue. Creditors fear that ithers will be ahead ol them in obtaining liens on tho property of their debtors. In that lies thc ex? planation of the bulk of the cases. The lien being secured, there is surely good ground for tho belief that proper forbearance will be exercised, in most lases, from motives of common humanity, and that public sentiment will command it in the others. It ivould be well to spread this view of the matter, to ill ay distress and excitement, which ore taking possession of people's minds. *#* BROWN'S BRONCHIAL TBOCHES.-"Your Trochos ire too well and favorably known to need commen lation."
